RampUp 2024: New Partnership Opportunities in the Year of Cookieless

By Mark Traverso

First of all, let me say a huge thanks to the LiveRamp team for a great event and for providing such a fantastic opportunity to meet current and prospective partners. RampUp is always a key date in our calendar but this year proved even more special.

With 2024 finally looking like it’s going to be the year that cookies go away, it’s not surprising that this year’s RampUp was buzzing even more than usual. Clearly the industry is looking for a replacement to the giant chasm that the deprecation of third-party cookies will leave. And many of those companies were clamoring to speak with Lighthouse List-Ameribase.

The lead up to the conference already looked promising with 19 meetings scheduled even before we touched down in San Francisco. The buzz continued while we were there, with more companies approaching us to discuss our data. What solutions were they most interested in? Email activation, deployment and retargeting; direct mail datasets; business audiences; political audiences; custom audiences; and of course our raw data signals.

Why Raw Data in 2024?

With cookies becoming increasingly obsolete, marketers are seeking alternative solutions that are not reliant on browser-based tracking. Our raw data opted-in signals, available at scale, including full text emails, HEMs, MAIDs, IP addresses and other IDs as needed, provide a more comprehensive and persistent view of consumer behavior, spanning across devices and platforms, thereby enabling more accurate audience targeting, measurement & analytics.

It was the identity and linkage capabilities of our raw data signals, allowing marketers to create comprehensive customer profiles and deliver personalized experiences across various channels and devices, that companies were so interested in at RampUp 2024. After all, by leveraging full-text emails, HEMs, MAIDs, and IPs, marketers can establish robust identity graphs and connect with consumers in a meaningful and privacy-conscious manner.
